Texas AG files lawsuit in U.S. Supreme Court against Michigan on election process
LANSING, Mich. โ Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a Lawsuit Tuesday claiming that Michigan and other battleground states altered election laws and flooded the state with ballots with no chain of custody. The lawsuit asks the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the case after the Court declined to hear a Pennsylvania case that wanted to reverse that stateโs vote certification. The lawsuit repeats numerous false, disproven and unsupported allegations of illegal mail-in balloting and voting in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. This year, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson sent out applications to vote, not actual ballots, unless the voter completed the process to vote absentee. Their votes were counted, in some cases, multiple times.โThe audits will include a statewide risk-limiting audit, a complete zero-margin risk-limiting audit in Antrim County, and procedural audits in more than 200 jurisdictions statewide, including absentee ballot counting boards, according to the Bureau.

Michigan leaders respond to Judge Amy Coney Barrettโs Supreme Court nomination
WASHINGTON โ President Donald Trump announced Saturday he was nominating Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. โI am thrilled that President Trump has chosen Amy Coney Barrett to serve as the next associate justice on the Supreme Court. Amy Coney Barrett has a proven track record of protecting our Constitution, honoring the sanctity of life, and fighting for the rule of law. The nomination of Amy Coney Barrett is an unconscionable assault on the Affordable Care Act. As I have said before, I do not support the Senate moving forward on a Supreme Court nomination until after Inauguration Day.
